Important! Do not pull, move or damage

any pipes and/or cables inside the cabinet.

Never use detergents, abrasive powders,

highly perfumed cleaning products or wax

polishes to clean the interior as this will

damage the surface and leave a strong

odour.

Clean the condenser (black grill) and the

compressor at the back of the appliance

with a brush. This operation will improve the

performance of the appliance and save

electricity consumption.

Important! Take care of not to damage the

cooling system.

Many proprietary kitchen surface cleaners

contain chemicals that can attack/damage

the plastics used in this appliance. For this

reason it is recommended that the outer

casing of this appliance is only cleaned with

warm water with a little washing-up liquid

added.

After cleaning, reconnect the equipment to

the mains supply.

DEFROSTING THE FREEZER

A certain amount of frost will always form

on the freezer shelves and around the top

compartment.

Defrost the freezer when the frost layer rea-

ches a thickness of about 3-5 mm.

To remove the frost, follow the instructions

below:

• switch off the appliance and pull out the

plug from the wall socket

• remove any stored food, wrap it in sever-

al layers of newspaper and put it in a cool

place

• remove the freezer drawers

• put insulating material around the draw-

ers, e.g. blankets or newspapers.

Defrosting can be accelerated by placing

bowls with hot water (not boiling) inside the

freezer.

• Leave the door open and insert the plas-

tic scraper in the appropriate seating at

the bottom centre, placing a basin under-

neath to collect the defrost water

• carefully scrape off the ice when it starts

to thaw (use a wood or a plastic scraper)

• when all the ice has melted, dry the interi-

or thoroughly and keep the scraper for

future use.

• switch on the appliance and replace the

frozen foodstuff.

It is recommended to operate the appliance

at the highest position of the thermostatic

control for some hours so that it can reach

the sufficient storing temperature as soon

as possible.

Caution! Never use sharp metal tools

to scrape off frost from the evaporator

as you could damage it. Do not use a

mechanical device or any artificial

means to speed up the thawing

process other than those

recommended by the manufacturer. A

temperature rise of the frozen food

packs, during defrosting, may shorten

their safe storage life.

WHAT TO DO IF…

During operation of the appliance some

smaller but annoying trouble can often oc-

cur, which does not require calling a techni-

cian out. In the following chart information is

given about them to avoid unnecessary

charges on service.

Important! The operation of the appliance

goes with certain sounds (compressor and

circulating sound). This not means a

trouble, but a normal operation.
